DAS & WI-FI

DAS

Cell phone networks are now all about capacity where in the past they were all about coverage. The time Americans spent on the cell phones grew by 394% from just 2010 to 2014. Consumer demands for coverage and data capacity and buildings built of steel, concrete and low-e glass have meant that existing macro networks are overtaxed.

New capacity solutions are necessary and Distributed Antenna Systems(DAS) are port of the solution and are becoming critical for:

Large commercial real estate

Sporting venues

Large scale facilities

WIFI

Wi-fi routes traffic directly onto the internet and today’s consumers expect businesses to provide it with many businesses not meeting this demand. By 2019 two-thirds of internet traffic is expected to be wireless with more capacity needed to meet peak demand. Part of a mix of of short-range wireless solutions including DAS and small cells, wi-fi will be vital by offloading traffic from cellular networks.
